Proceeding contribution from Roger Williams (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 18 June 2009. It occurred during Ministerial statement on UK Climate Projections.
UK Climate Projections
Agriculture has a large part to play, through improved land management, increasing carbon sequestration and mitigating flooding by improving the permeability of the land, yet the Government have reduced research into agriculture over the years. Tomorrow I will visit Aberystwyth, where a lot of good work is being done along those lines. What plans do the Government have to increase the amount of money that they commit to agricultural research?
